This book presents different research designs, their respective
purposes and merits as well as their underlying assumptions. Research
designs are characterised by a certain combination of knowledge aims
and strategies for data production. An adequate design is the key to
carrying out a successful research project. Nevertheless, the
literature on design is scarce, compared to the literature on
methods. This book clarifies the basic distinction between
variable-oriented designs and case designs, and proceeds to
integrated, comparative and intervention-oriented designs. A
step-by-step guide to the design process and the choices to make is
also included. The book's clear style makes it an excellent guide for
master students and PhD students doing their first research exercises,
while it is also useful for more experienced researchers who want to
broaden their design repertoire and keep up to recent innovations in
the field of research design.
